Synopsis: [From IMP promotional materials] A drama that suddenly and unexpectedly turns into a farce. If your little child were locked in a safe and you paid a professional safe-blower a stack of money to get him out, and then found the kid safely ensconced in the towel basket and not in the safe at all, would you be glad or would you be sore? Imagine what a corking good picture can be worked up on this plot.
